Xfce 4.10pre1 released

WEBINAR:On-Demand

"This release incorporates major changes to the core of the Xfce
desktop environment and hopefully succeeds in fulfilling a number
of long time requests. Among the most notable updates is the new
application finder that merges the functionality of the old
appfinder and xfrun4. The Panel also has a new vertical mode [aka
Deskbar] for better space usage on wide-screen monitors and a new
actions plugin. On the settings side the settings helper is
integrated in xfsettingsd, saving 1 running process. There is also
a reworked settings dialog with categories and pluggable dialogs
enabled by default. Basic Synaptics and Wacom settings in the Mouse
settings and a new MIME-Type editor.

Thunar gained a more polished layout to reduce space usage and
more responsive interaction with the thumbnail generator. Because
we have not decided on how to merge the desktop functionality into
Thunar yet, Xfdesktop has instead received various improvements,
including single-click support, desktop icon thumbnails and better
pasting of files.
